Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1571705A2] A semiconductor entity is produced by supplying sufficient energy to detach a portion of a thin layer from a donor substrate located at a motif and to rupture bonds within the thin layer. The energy is insufficient to rupture the bond at the bonding interface. Production of a semiconductor entity involves providing a donor substrate (10) having a zone of weakness (15) at a predetermined depth to define a thin layer. The donor substrate includes a bonding interface. A receiver substrate (20) that includes at least one motif (22) on its surface is provided. The donor substrate is bonded at the bonding interface to the motif on the receiver substrate. Sufficient energy is supplied to detach a portion of the thin layer from the donor substrate located at the motif and to rupture bonds within the thin layer to form the semiconductor entity. The energy is insufficient to rupture the bond at the bonding interface. An independent claim is also included for a wafer comprising a first substrate including at least one projecting motif, and a second substrate bonded to the projecting motif. The second substrate further comprises a zone of weakness that defines a thin layer.
